Ahmed thanks for your comments, the situation is that before calling "searchMember.php" or "searchProduct.php" or other, I need to give to user an interface where a message like "insert the Product/Member/Order Id", then when he inserts and presses "find" the appropriate "searchSomething.php" page is called, depending on what whe had selected to search for. Of course I can make 3 individual pages ("SearchProductIsertId.php", "SearchMemberInsertId.php", "SearchOrderInsertId.php"), where each page will call another page (e.g "SearchOrderInsertId.php" -> "SearchOrder.php"). This seems easier but if a change is needed in "SearchSomethingInsertId.php", I'll have to change all the 3 previous pages. Thus I thougt it would be better to make only one page for all searches. What is the common choice of experienced php devs in case of creating an administrative interface for various tables (e.g. products, members, orders etc)?
